Bourjois 123 perfect CC cream review

Hello everyone,

I know I've been missing over the last few days and haven't posted everyday like I said I would. I've decided that I'll blog as often as I can and if it happens to be two days in a row then that's fine!

Anyway, I have a review on the Bourjois 123 perfect CC cream.
WOW, I mean what more can I say? It feels amazing on my skin. It covers everything, only slightly so it looks like your skin but better, but still! I can't even find a concealer which will cover my under eye circles and this does! It has 3 pigments in which colour corrects (hence the name CC cream, Colour Correction. You get me? Am I making sense?) It has Apricot to help fight anti-fatigue, Green to help fight anti-redness (green is the opposite colour to red on the colour chart, therefore it cancels it out) and White to help fight anti-dark spots. I can totally agree with the anti-redness as I suffer with acne so it's difficult finding something to cover up redness (without smothering my face in green) but this really does cover up the redness around my spots- sorry for sounding gross! It just makes your skin feel and look flawless, but I will give you some advice...

If like me you suffer from combination/oily skin, I'd advise pressing your powder into your skin after applying the CC cream, then blotting your face and powdering again. I only learnt this trick the other day. I applied the CC cream and because I had over exfoliated my skin was very oily, I blotted after applying my CC cream and then pressed the powder in. after wearing it for the day I was very shiny by the time it came to taking it off. So today I applied my CC cream, pressed the powder into my skin, blotted then powdered again and my skin doesn't look anywhere near as oily as it did yesterday (it is currently 8:30pm).

I have another review for you next time. I ordered the BeautyUK cream contour kit so I'll be trying that out for you and will be writing a review very soon!

Speak to you next time

No blog yesterday

Hello everyone,

I know I said I'd post every day and I didn't yesterday. I was out of the house looking and applying for jobs which meant that I didn't have time to write a blog post. I then went out for dinner in the evening so it was difficult to write a post as it was late.

Anyway, over the next few days I will (hopefully) be purchasing the Bourjois 123 perfect colour correcting cream. When I have purchased this I will do a first impressions blog about the colour, feel on my skin, how it looks etc. and then after I have worn it a few times I'll be posting a review on the CC cream.
I will also have another item to do a first impression and review on. I ordered the BeautyUK cream contour kit as I haven't got the money (or will to wait) for the Anastasia Beverly Hills cream contour kit. I thought to myself that for the time being this will do me, and at £4.99 who wouldn't buy it?! Once I have the money I will be buying the Anastasia Beverly Hills contour kit and I'll do a comparison blog, letting you know how similar or different it is and if it is a dupe for the ABH contour kit.

Talk to you next time,

Introduction

Hello everyone,

I've decided (3rd blog attempt!) that I will keep a blog going! 

I thought I'd introduce myself, explain my blog name and explain about this blog. 
My name is Sara, I have a passion for makeup and would love to work on a makeup counter, but for the time being I'm studying to become a teaching assistant. Even if I don't work on a makeup counter I can still do my passion through blogging and hopefully a YouTube channel one day.
My blog name; well I don't really know what inspired it, I guess it's just the order of how I do things. I wake up and I do my makeup. I don't really drink coffee, but hopefully I'm getting a job in a coffee shop while I'm studying so I thought it was appropriate. I also thought the name was unique and different from anyone else. 
This blog is going to be dedicated to beauty. I'll have beauty demos, reviews, hauls, just anything beauty related! I will also be posting updates on my teaching assistant course to let you guys know how I'm getting on and if it was worth the money! I'm going to try to write a blog post everyday but don't shoot me if I don't! I'll try and blog as much as I can! 

Anyway, I'll speak to you guys later!
